The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has made a significant change to its pricing, with the gantry price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) now standing at ₦1,175 per litre, which is the third time the price has gone up in just seven days.

n

This latest move, which was announced to marketers and depot operators on Monday, has resulted in the ex-depot price increasing by ₦180 from ₦995 per litre, which was the price announced just three days prior on Friday, representing an 18.1 per cent increase.

n

The refinery has also made adjustments to the price of another fuel type, with the gantry price of Automotive Gas Oil (diesel) now at ₦1,620 per litre.

n

This recent price hike is not an isolated incident, as it follows earlier changes that saw gantry prices rise from ₦774 to ₦995 per litre in the space of just one week.
